About the show

The art podcast sharing the beautiful and brutal truths about building a creative life. International artist Kate Florence hosts honest chats with inspiring and successful artists all around the world, answering the questions no one else talks about: money, creative burnout, galleries, and actionable strategies to build a sustainable creative practice. We get into the nitty-gritty of the parts that don't usually make it onto the feed — the breakthroughs, redirections and the hard-won lessons of building a real art career. From art business to artist mindset. Nothing is off the table. Because the more openly we share, the better the creative journey gets for all of us. New episode every Wednesday fortnight x Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
